Ooops ... Sony (Leaks?) New Walkman Info Online

By: Spacelab Research Staff

These days there's a fine line between a leak and an accident when it comes to circulating (dis)information online. So when information about Sony's new Walkman E Series popped up in New Zealand on Monday, one had to wonder whether it was intentional or not.

Regardless, what's floating around right now looks pretty cool. Consider this: it works with iTunes or Windows Media, plays video, has an FM tuner, and lasts through 29 hours of audio or 7 hours of video. Audio types supported: MP3, AAC, WMA and WAV. The word on the web is that these are lower end models of what's coming and intended for the budget-minded. With the kind of economic upheaval going on around the globe today, we all could use some price lovin.'

There were three different models in four different colors: NWZ-E435 (2GB), NWZ-E436 (4GB), and NWZ-E438 (8GB); you can get them in red, turqoise, pink or black. They might be out in a few months, just in time for the holidaze.
